How do I contact the shelter about Nelka?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ÚVP Košice handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nelka on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Nelka if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ÚVP Košice will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Nelka already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.

What happens if Nelka isn't the right fit?

Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with ÚVP Košice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nelka and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (SK). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.

Nelka

Mixed Breed · Female

On 24.03, we received a dog named Nina along with her six puppies (Nick, Nelka, Natan, Nox, Niko and Nio), who were found in the Košice district of Luník IX. Nina took care of her puppies and was an amazing mother dog. Now it's time for everyone to find their loving homes. NELKA IS ONE OF THE RESCUED PUPPIES – THE ONLY GIRL AMONG HER SIBLINGS. Nelka is a small, little puppy who is still at the very beginning of her life. She is nice, sensitive and is gradually getting used to the presence of people. She seeks closeness to people and feels safer in their presence. Like any small puppy, she mainly needs calm, security, a regular routine and lots of sleep. Gradually, she will get used to everyday things and slowly start to discover the world around her. She doesn't have hygiene habits yet, which is completely natural for such a young puppy. Nelka is looking for a home in an apartment or house with access inside. She is suitable for people who realize that a puppy means time, patience and daily care. Nelka is looking for a forever home - a home where she will be able to grow up by the side of her humans. 06.

Dňa 24.03. sme prijali do útulku fenku Ninu spolu s jej šiestimi šteniatkami (Nick, Nelka, Natan, Nox, Niko a Nio), ktoré sa našli v košickej mestskej časti Luník IX. Nina sa o svoje šteniatka starala a bola úžasnou psou maminou. Teraz prišiel čas, aby si všetci našli svoje milujúce domovy. NELKA JE JEDNA ZO ZACHRÁNENÝCH ŠTENIATOK – JEDINÉ DIEVČATKO ZO SÚRODENCOV. Nelka je mladučká fenočka, ktorá má celý život ešte pred sebou. Je veľmi milá, jemná a vnímavá. Blízkosť ľudí vyhľadáva a v ich prítomnosti sa cíti spokojne a istejšie. Pozornosť si nesmierne užíva a človeka by najradšej mala stále pri sebe. Je to veľká zlatá dušička, ktorá si rýchlo získa srdce každého, kto ju spozná. Ako každé malé šteniatko je hravá, zvedavá a rada objavuje nové veci. Potrebuje pravidelný režim, dostatok pohybu primeraného veku a najmä trpezlivé a láskavé vedenie. Veľmi dôležitá bude socializácia, výchova a čas, ktorý jej nová rodina venuje. Hygienické návyky ešte nemá úplne zvládnuté, no pri dôslednom a citlivom prístupe sa ich bude postupne učiť. Nelka hľadá domov v byte alebo v dome s prístupom dovnútra. Je vhodná pre ľudí, ktorí si uvedomujú, že šteniatko znamená nielen veľa radosti, ale aj zodpovednosť, čas, trpezlivosť a každodennú starostlivosť. Nelka si hľadá domov navždy – domov, kde bude môcť vyrastať, dospieť po boku svojich ľudí a stať sa milovaným členom rodiny.

About Nelka

What life with Nelka looks like

Nelka is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇸🇰Adopting from Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.
